Clean Slate Energy Anytime, Anywhere

Hey there, Highly Sensitive Person -

This is kind of a downer, but bear with me. I promise I'll bring it back up!

Think back to something that makes you feel embarrassed, guilty, or ashamed.

I bet a memory leapt into your mind way faster than you'd like.

How long have you been hanging onto that memory?

How much of an effect does it have on your daily life?

Do you want to keep it, or would you rather be able to let it go?

Whether you think you should have done a better job on something, you

let someone down, or you let yourself down, chances are, the meaning you attached to that memory is negative.

Our brains are wired to notice and remember things that didn't feel great

WAY more than things that feel awesome.

It's a survival mechanism.

The problem arises when those negative things are simply human interactions that we use against ourselves - long past the time it took to learn the lesson.

Hanging onto the thing you think you should have done better is becoming a weight that's holding you back.

It's costing you precious energy (a premium resource for Highly Sensitive People - HSP - like us).

It's costing you opportunities to repair relationships, try new things, or take (calculated) risks.

It's costing you progress towards your goals and dreams.

It's keeping you stuck in regret, shame, and resistance.

But what if you could free yourself from the heaviness of those past "failures" and "mistakes" so you can start moving forward again?

I call it Clean Slate Energy, and you don't need a New Year or a new month or a new moon to have a fresh start.

It's not that those stumbles in the past made you a bad person or proved that you didn't know what you were doing (and should therefore never be attempted again).

I've seen the past weigh down my clients for months and years, keeping them discouraged, stuck, and disappointed.

I've 100% been there myself too, feeling a lot of self-pity and resistance instead of giving myself permission to move on.

It's the story that you're telling yourself about who you are, based on things that happened in the past, that's stalling you.

Things that happened when you didn't know what you know now.

Things that gave you valuable information - if you're willing to face them long enough to extract the juice from them.

Things that were ultimately neutral until you assign meaning to them.

You get to decide to move on from past mistakes with a clean slate, anytime, anywhere.

Letting the past go so you can give yourself a fresh start is exactly what I discuss on this week's episode of the Highly Sensitive Club.

Listen on your favorite podcast app and / or watch on YouTube.

In the episode, you'll learn the:

• thinking that keeps you trapped in the past (and stuck in the present)

• unsexy truth about change and transformation that everyone has to go through (including HSPs)

• simple way to forgive yourself and give yourself permission to start fresh right now

When you give yourself permission to wipe the slate clean, it's like an instant breath of fresh air.

You're opening up the windows of your mind and allowing a crisp breeze to blow through, airing out each room and making it feel new again.

It's like putting fresh sheets on the bed and dusting off the cobwebs.

You feel free, relieved, light, and open.

You start to get curious again.

You want to take action, whether it's a small step or a major spring-cleaning.

You give yourself grace and compassion, like you would for a friend who's been struggling for a while.

My clients who have done this during our sessions have:

• Answered messages they've left unopened for days (or weeks)

• Reached out to connect with people

• Started small projects around the house that have been piling up

• Built exercise routines that felt challenging and flexible

• Finished art projects left undone for seasons at a time

• Had tough conversations that made them feel proud on the other side

These steps might seem small, but there are three things I want you to keep in mind:

1. Small steps are what lead to big progress over time - it's not as glamorous, but it's more effective.

2. When you're stuck for a while, small steps feel like big wins.

3. Each step builds evidence that you can move on from your past and be the person you want to be.

This is one of my best episodes because it's inspired by actual problems highly sensitive clients have been facing recently.

Helping them tap into their own clean slate energy is one of the many reasons I love helping HSPs.

I can help you do that too.

Listen / watch Clean Slate Energy Anytime, Anywhere to free up your precious energy and move forward.

To a fresh start, right now -
